Bonjour,

This morning, we went to Bingerville. We stopped at the Machs' house at
first to drop off a meal for them. Becky was sitting up in the chair,
but she didn't look like she felt very well.

Luc and Morganne rode to the camp with us. They played with the boys
outside while Joe preached to the campers. When Joe finished preaching,
we took Luc and Morganne back home.

We needed to go to the American Embassy to pick up Bonnie's passport.
It is over in that area. So, we ate lunch while we waited for the
embassy to open at 13:30. Joe left the children and I at the pizza
place while he went to get the passport. There is a play place there;
the boys played while we waited for Daddy. Joe got back with the
passport. He had forgotten to ask about the born-abroad birth
certificate. He called them, and it was in too. So, he went back to
get that while the boys played a little longer.

Both boys and Bonnie fell asleep on the way home. So, that was the
boys' nap for the day. If they get a little bit of rest, it gives them
their second wind, I guess. I got a nap in while Daddy played with the
children. Bonnie and I were up until almost 2:30 this morning; so, I
was a bit tired.

Joe took the boys swimming. Gilbert is glad to have his pool back up again.

A demain,

Joe, Laura, Gilbert, Danny, and Bonnie
